Principal Machine Learning Engineer - Production Systems

Computer Vision & SDK Development Lead

Computer Vision & SDK Development Lead

We are working with one of the world's leading CPU development groups who are looking to add CPU experts and architects to their team in Cambridge. This role will see you work on next-generation computing systems that will help to shape technologies across AI, automotive, data centers and wireless communications. The team is open to people from both industry and strong computing architecture academic research backgrounds. The role would be located on-site in Cambridge and could operate on a hybrid basis.


Responsibilities:

  • Analyzing CPU performance, power, and cost, and identifying technological limitations to overcome.
  • Collaborating with Architects to develop key technologies that ensure our CPUs remain industry-leading.
  • Defining next-generation cluster solutions based on advanced CPUs.
  • Developing expertise in the competitive landscape and understanding technologies required for solutions in areas like Infrastructure, Computer Vision, and Machine Learning.


Required Skills and Experience:

  • Knowledge and experience in CPU architecture/microarchitecture, gained through development/research in CPU/system power/performance analysis/modeling/design and/or workload analysis/characterization/software optimization.
  • Ability to work effectively independently and as part of geographically distributed, cross-functional teams.
  • A drive to innovate, think creatively, explore new avenues, and influence colleagues through detailed investigations.
  • Exposure to working on ARM or RISC-V based architectures


Additional expertise to support application:

  • Experience with advanced CPU techniques, including branch prediction and prefetchers (microarchitecture, design, etc.).
  • Proficiency in CPU performance analysis and/or modeling.
  • Experience with power modeling/estimation of CPU/GPU/SoC.
  • Experience in the design/implementation of CPU/GPU IPs.
  • Experience with workload analysis, characterization, and/or optimizing open-source software.
  • Familiarity with CPU infrastructure architectures and related system constraints.
  • Ability to work with emerging technologies and stay current with the latest research.
  • Thriving in an open work environment that encourages contributions to product and roadmap development through ideas, prototypes, and empirical analysis.

Machine Learning Jobs for Career Switchers in Their 30s, 40s & 50s (UK Reality Check)

Are you considering a career change into machine learning in your 30s, 40s or 50s? You’re not alone. In the UK, organisations across industries such as finance, healthcare, retail, government & technology are investing in machine learning to improve decisions, automate processes & unlock new insights. But with all the hype, it can be hard to tell which roles are real job opportunities and which are just buzzwords. This article gives you a practical, UK-focused reality check: which machine learning roles truly exist, what skills employers really hire for, how long retraining realistically takes, how to position your experience and whether age matters in your favour or not. Whether you come from analytics, engineering, operations, research, compliance or business strategy, there is a credible route into machine learning if you approach it strategically.

How to Write a Machine Learning Job Ad That Attracts the Right People

Machine learning now sits at the heart of many UK organisations, powering everything from recommendation engines and fraud detection to forecasting, automation and decision support. As adoption grows, so does demand for skilled machine learning professionals. Yet many employers struggle to attract the right candidates. Machine learning job adverts often generate high volumes of applications, but few applicants have the blend of modelling skill, engineering awareness and real-world experience the role actually requires. Meanwhile, strong machine learning engineers and scientists quietly avoid adverts that feel vague, inflated or confused. In most cases, the issue is not the talent market — it is the job advert itself. Machine learning professionals are analytical, technically rigorous and highly selective. A poorly written job ad signals unclear expectations and low ML maturity. A well-written one signals credibility, focus and a serious approach to applied machine learning. This guide explains how to write a machine learning job ad that attracts the right people, improves applicant quality and strengthens your employer brand.

Maths for Machine Learning Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

Machine learning job adverts in the UK love vague phrases like “strong maths” or “solid fundamentals”. That can make the whole field feel gatekept especially if you are a career changer or a student who has not touched maths since A level. Here is the practical truth. For most roles on MachineLearningJobs.co.uk such as Machine Learning Engineer, Applied Scientist, Data Scientist, NLP Engineer, Computer Vision Engineer or MLOps Engineer with modelling responsibilities the maths you actually use is concentrated in four areas: Linear algebra essentials (vectors, matrices, projections, PCA intuition) Probability & statistics (uncertainty, metrics, sampling, base rates) Calculus essentials (derivatives, chain rule, gradients, backprop intuition) Basic optimisation (loss functions, gradient descent, regularisation, tuning) If you can do those four things well you can build models, debug training, evaluate properly, explain trade-offs & sound credible in interviews. This guide gives you a clear scope plus a six-week learning plan, portfolio projects & resources so you can learn with momentum rather than drowning in theory.
